did you check the....

"memory support list"? http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/FileList/MemorySupport/motherboard_memory_ga-ma78g-ds3hp_rev.2.0.pdfI would check it out... from what I could tell your memory wasn't on the supported list... which might be why XP isn't seeing it.

hm...

When you placed the RAM in did you reset the BIOS? unplug the PS from the wall, purge the power (holding the power button in while disconnected from the wall), reset the BIOS to factory defaults (by using the jumper)? I might give that a shot... The system might pick it up and set it up automatically...

Also there have been a few BIOS updates, last release was 06/08/09... I would also run that update... but remember if you do it and something F***s up your left with a dead board.http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Support/Motherboard/BIOS_Model.aspx?ProductID=2943
